| Résumé: | This paper explores the significance of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church's (PBCC) intervention into New Zealand politics in the 2005 General Election through its circulation of pamphlets attacking all parties other than the National Party. Accusations at the time revealed that the National Party knew of the plans, and the result probably affected the outcome of a closely fought election. A subsequent political expose by Nicky Hagar revealed the extensive contact between that political party and the PBCC leaders. The paper explains the background for the intervention by the PBCC, and identifies the significance of this for the PBCC and for New Zealand politics. |
